BALSAM FIR 

The balsam fir is a native of Wisconsin. It is considered a short-needled tree with superb fragrance. The aroma from the balsam fir that fills your home throughout the holiday season is one of the main selling points of the tree. If kept well-watered, needle retention is excellent. Although the needle retention is excellent, the needles tend to break easily when transporting or setting up the tree.

FRASER FIR

The fraser fir is native to the Appalachian Mountain region. This short-needled tree has a pleasant fragrance but not as intense as the balsam fir. Strong branches with a silvery underside, along with excellent needle retention, have made this tree a top-seller on the market.

WHITE PINE

The white pine is native to Wisconsin and is considered a long-needled tree with soft needles as long as five inches. This tree offers a slight yet pleasant fragrance. Small ornaments, lights and garland are the preferred decoration for this tree, as the branches are very flexible and do not easily withstand heavy ornaments.

SCOTCH PINE

The scotch pine was imported from Europe.  It is considered a long-needled tree with needles up to three inches long.  There is little fragrance associated with the scotch pine.  It has stronger branches than the white pine which allows it to support larger ornaments.  This tree was once the top seller on the market.
